This is the kind of deck I love to fight: no enchantment destroyers.

Taiga? Are you insane to even a $40 dollar card?

Take it out.. and replace it with something at least attainable. Unless you want to just spend like over $100 dollars just for 4 cards.

And umm.. take out Utopia Sprawl for Rampant Growth. Rampant Growth is better because it actually makes mana for you, Utopia Sprawl just converts mana from one color to another, it doesn't increase your overall mana supply.

Also increase your land count to 22. A recommened amount is 24, but if you have mana acceleration, you can get away with a bit less.

+ Lands
- Utopia Sprawl
+ Rampant Growth

Though there is one thing I would love to do your deck :)
*Casts Angelsong!

Overall, a good deck for a beginner and fun and easy to play. Good job.

haha, i own 4 copies of taiga, as for utopia sprawl read the card my man, it deffinately provides extra mana

Utopia Sprawl

Enchantment - Aura, G (1)
Enchant Forest
As Utopia Sprawl enters the battlefield, choose a color.
Whenever enchanted Forest is tapped for mana, its controller adds one mana of the chosen color to his or her mana pool (in addition to the mana the land produces)

and the mana curve i picked on purpose because this deck only needs 4 mana out to function properly, it can get away with 3 easily

im not sure if ur last sentence is meant as an insult, but i assure u that i am no beginner, i built this deck for old times sake, if u read the description u will notice that i call it old fashioned, which of course it is. this deck is for fun

Oh... I guess I misread your deck.

-> Taiga : Running 4 is restricted in Vintage. You may only run 1 copy of Taiga. Of course you can ignore me if you wish, but that is the rules. You may replace Taiga with Forests

-> Utopia Sprawl: Running 4 of them over Rampant Growth will give you 3 mana for 2nd turn versus 4 mana for 3rd turn if you used Rampant Growth. The advantage of Rampant Growth is that it gives you an extra land instead of making a land doubling its power. Rampant Growth also thins your deck out of 1 land, so you have a less chance to draw a land.

If your opponent runs land destruction in the form of Strip Mine (which is very common in vintage), Rampant Growth is recommended. If you don't mind losing the ability to 2nd term cast something for 3 mana, Rampant Growth is recommened. If you do mind 2nd turn and cast something that cost 3 mana such as ball lightning, go with utopia sprawl.

I would also use fetch lands instead of of Stomping Ground if your keeping Utopia Sprawl. Since I can fetch for a forest also. Thin my deck + get a forest for only 1 life compared to 2 life for Stomping Ground.

I would say this deck is fun and easy to play. But I assure you, I don't really meant to insult you. I'm just a bit more critical than others. Maybe my advice is good, maybe my advice is bad. But I don't just go ahead and vote that a deck is good without giving my honest opinion.

alright, no worries my man, and i use utopia sprawl to make sure that i can play ball lightning on turn 3, that way i can play out the deck like so

turn 1: land, utopia sprawl
turn 2: land sheltering ancient
turn 3: land ball lightning/ground breaker, then play giant growth/brute force then attack for 15
turn 4: play anything and attack for the win
